Breast cancer remains a major public health concern, and early detection is crucial for improving survival rates. Metabolomics offers the potential to develop non-invasive screening and diagnostic tools based on metabolic biomarkers. However, the inherent complexity of metabolomic datasets and the high dimensionality of biomarkers complicates the identification of diagnostically relevant features, with multiple studies demonstrating limited consensus on the specific metabolites involved.

Article Synopsis
  • - Pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) make up 20% of lung cancers and are difficult to manage due to their aggressive nature and varied clinical features.
  • - The study measured 153 metabolites in the blood of 120 NEN patients and 71 healthy people using liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry, revealing 21 metabolites with significant changes related to specific NEN subtypes.
  • - Identifying these metabolomic profiles highlights alterations in key metabolic pathways and suggests that these biomarkers could improve early diagnosis and treatment strategies for lung NENs.

Aim: The assessment of tumor response to therapy is of critical importance as it permits for a prospective end point evaluation and provides a guide to clinicians for making future treatment decisions. However, current practices in early evaluation of chemotherapy are insufficient. Amantadine is a substrate for .
